I'm using Dropbox's command-line daemon on one of our machines and
want to use Puppet to keep it running. The dropbox service is already
installed and allows me to successfully execute /etc/init.d/dropbox
[start/stop/restart/service]. Here's my code:
class dropbox::service {
service { "dropbox":
ensure => running,
}
}
I get the following syslog error when this runs:
(/Stage[main]/Dropbox::Service/Service[dropbox]/ensure) change from
stopped to running failed: Could not start Service[dropbox]: Execution
of '/etc/init.d/dropbox start' returned 1: at /etc/puppet/modules/
dropbox/manifests/init.pp:14
However, if I run the above command manually, it works fine and
returns 0:
root@webhost:~# /etc/init.d/dropbox start ; echo $?
Starting dropbox...
0
Any ideas why puppet can't start the dropbox daemon?
